NORTH SHORE COMMUNITY COLLEGE

North Shore Community College's aviation program in Danvers, Massachusetts provides an affordable pathway to an Associate of Science degree in Aviation Science with a Professional Pilot concentration. NSCC holds FAA Air Agency Certificate LQ8S303Q as a Part 141 ground training provider, conducting all required aviation ground school courses under Part 141 standards. Actual flight instruction is delivered by partner Beverly Flight Center — located just five miles and a 12-minute drive from the Danvers campus — under Part 61 rules, creating a cost-effective model that separates academic coursework from practical flight training. Most program courses are available during evenings, weekends, and online, making the degree accessible to working students who cannot attend traditional daytime classes. NSCC's aviation program serves the North Shore and greater Boston area student population seeking a quality aviation education at community college tuition rates, providing a meaningful on-ramp to professional pilot careers for students who might find four-year residential aviation programs financially out of reach.
